摘要:
Underground structures can significantly affect the ground motion and further influence the seismic design of aboveground structures around them. Although this issue has been well recognised and studied, it is not thoroughly addressed as a large number of factors are involved. This paper focuses on ground motion amplification induced by twin circular tunnels embedded in saturated poroelastic soil. The saturated poroelastic soil is modelled as a two-phase medium to consider parameters characterising the fluid phase. Three-dimensional scattering features of the twin tunnels for obliquely incident seismic waves are numerically investigated by a 2.5D finite element and boundary element hybrid model. It is shown that the presence of the twin tunnels can lead to significant modifications of the free-field motion, in terms of its magnitude and distribution. The threedimensional oblique incidence scenario presents a more general perspective on the ground motion amplification. Moreover, the effects of saturated poroelastic soil parameters on the ground motion amplification, including soil permeability, groundwater levels, and the degree of saturation, are parametrically investigated. The differences in ground motion amplification patterns between the saturated poroelastic and dry poroelastic soil scenarios are notable, highlighting the effects of parameters characterising the fluid phase.
